For assessing the flood damage due and comprises of Idukki Arch Dam, Kulamavu Dam and to dam breach it is necessary to predict not only the Cheruthoni dam. During the monsoon period when the dams possibility and mode of a dam failure, but also the flood hydrograph of discharge from the dam breach and the are full at its Maximum Reservoir Level (MRL) or in an propagation of the flood waves. The studies are to map or adverse event of dam break, the maximum discharge gets delineate areas of potential flood inundation resulting from released from these dams. This results into floods on a dam breach, flood depth, flow velocity and travel time of downstream and may cause disaster in cities or towns the flood waves etc. Knowledge of the flood wave and settled on the banks of the reservoir. This paper presents a flood-inundation area caused by a dam breach can case study of dam break analysis of Idukki Arch Dam using potentially mitigate loss of life and property damage.

The Omkareshwar Dam in India : Closing Doors on Peoples' Future
The Omkareshwar Dam in India : Closing Doors on Peoples’ Future Abstract: The Omkareshwar Project is one of 30 large dams to be built in the Narmada Valley and which are being contested by one of India’s strongest grassroots movements. In Spring 2004 MIGA, the World Bank’s Investment Guarantee Agency, turned down an application for Omkareshwar because of “environmental and social concerns”. The project will displace 50,000 small farmers and flood up to 5800 hectars of one of Central India’s last intact natural forests. Construction of the dam was taken up in November 2003, in spite of the fact that no Environmental Impact Asessment and no resettlement plan has been prepared for the project. The project violates a number of national and international standards, including the so-called Equator Principles. Although it has been turned down by Deutsche Bank, several foreign banks and export credit agencies are still considering loan and insurance applications for Omkareshwar. Village Sukwa, Omkareshwar submergence area A number of European private banks and several Export Credit Agencies (ECAs) have been asked to provide support for the highly controversial Omkareshwar Dam Project in India. In November 2003, representatives of the Japan Center for Sustainable Environment and Society (JACSES) and the German environment and human rights NGO Urgewald undertook a fact-finding mission to the Omkareshwar area. The following report is based on data collected during our visit as well as discussions with the project sponsor, affected villagers and a review of all obtainable project documents. The Project and its Sponsor The Omkareshwar Project was conceived in 1965 as an irrigation and power dam to be built in the Central Indian State of Madhya Pradesh.

Hydro Electric Power Dams in Kerala and Environmental Consequences from Socio-Economic Perspectives
[VOLUME 5 I ISSUE 3 I JULY – SEPT 2018] e ISSN 2348 –1269, Print ISSN 2349-5138 http://ijrar.com/ Cosmos Impact Factor 4.236 Hydro Electric Power Dams in Kerala and Environmental Consequences from Socio-Economic Perspectives. Liji Samuel* & Dr. Prasad A. K.** *Research Scholar, Department of Economics, University of Kerala Kariavattom Campus P.O., Thiruvananthapuram. **Associate Professor, Department of Economics, University of Kerala Kariavattom Campus P.O., Thiruvananthapuram. Received: June 25, 2018 Accepted: August 11, 2018 ABSTRACT Energy has been a key instrument in the development scenario of mankind. Energy resources are obtained from environmental resources, and used in different economic sectors in carrying out various activities. Production of energy directly depletes the environmental resources, and indirectly pollutes the biosphere. In Kerala, electricity is mainly produced from hydelsources. Sometimeshydroelectric dams cause flash flood and landslides. This paper attempts to analyse the social and environmental consequences of hydroelectric dams in Kerala Keywords: dams, hydroelectricity, environment Introduction Electric power industry has grown, since its origin around hundred years ago, into one of the most important sectors of our economy. It provides infrastructure for economic life, and it is a basic and essential overhead capital for economic development. It would be impossible to plan production and marketing process in the industrial or agricultural sectors without the availability of reliable and flexible energy resources in the form of electricity. Indeed, electricity is a universally accepted yardstick to measure the level of economic development of a country. Higher the level of electricity consumption, higher would be the percapitaGDP. In Kerala, electricity production mainly depends upon hydel resources.One of the peculiar aspects of the State is the network of river system originating from the Western Ghats, although majority of them are short rapid ones with low discharges.

D1.1 Mission Report Bhadra Dam and Reservoir Karnataka, India
D1.1 Mission report Bhadra dam and reservoir Karnataka, India Deltares in cooperation with iPresas, SkyGeo and Royal Eijkelkamp Mrs. Jessica Castillo Mr. Joris Benninga Mr. Leon van Hamersveld Mr. Min Xu Mr. Ton Peters 11200775-001 © Deltares, 2017, B 11200775-001-GEO-0001, Version 03,30 May 2017, final Deltares Keywords Bhadra dam, dam safety, water reservoir, Operation & Maintenance, emergency response, PS-lnSAR satellite imaging, online monitoring system, risk-informed dam safety management, FEWS forecasting. Summary The water reservoirs in India are of vital importance to the cities and urban areas. They provide water for irrigation of the land (food production), are used to generate electricity (water and energy) and offer protection against flooding (safety). Often, the dams are aging, but are also facing different circumstances than when designed, due to changes in land use, socio-economic developments and climate change. The goal of the DAMSAFE pilot project is to contribute to enhancing dam safety and water management in India by introducing innovative technologies that improve forecasting of dam and reservoir behaviour. This will contribute to optimization of water management, Operation and Maintenance (O&M) and emergency response. The main stakeholders to the project in India are the Karnataka Water Resources Department (KaWRD) and the Central Water Commission (CWC) in New Delhi. The DAMSAFE consortium consists of Deltares (coordinator), Royal Eijkelkamp, SkyGeo and iPresas. This document presents a summary report on activities and meetings in February 2017, including the inception meeting, a site visit to the Bhadra dam and a working session on dam failure mode identification. Next to that a monitoring system for the dam and reservoir is designed based on identified failure mechanism and goals of the project.
